Dictionary Of Computer and Internet

Computers are no longer just for specialists. Today, computing is not just a

profession and a hobby; it is also a tool used in virtually all human activities.

That’s why we’ve compiled this book of background knowledge. Its purpose

is to tell you the things other people think you already know.

We design this book to have a convenient size so it can be easily carried

around. In compiling a book this size, we have had to be selective. The

quickest way to identify a word that you can’t find in a book is probably to

do a web search (see SEARCH ENGINE). Also, some terms are almost always

abbreviated, and in that case you should look for the abbreviation rather

than the full term.

Much has changed since the first edition of this book was published

more than twenty years ago. New terms are being invented every day. We

regularly update the book, and this edition contains new entries on a variety

of topics including Windows Vista and Mac OS X. We’ve also cut out

material that was showing its age.

Terms are marked slang or humorous if they are seldom used in serious

writing. They are marked as jargon if, in our estimation, they are somewhat

pretentious new names for old concepts and are not likely to endure. We

provide occasional Usage notes to explain grammar, spelling, and proper

use of words, such as the exact difference between disc and disk.

Throughout, we use SMALL CAPITALS to mark important words that are

defined elsewhere in this book. By following cross-references, you can

quickly find many entries that pertain to whatever interests you. Here are

some entries you may wish to start with to learn about particular topics:
